MUSICAL DTSCORD.
What the Musical Union Says of
Bandmaster Krause's Position.

What the Musical Union Says of
Bandmaster Krause's Position.
There is musical discord in the city, and
crash is imminent. The cause OF this break
In local harmoncs 10 not that Of day, but
has been gradually gaining strength, until
the Unions action of Sunday, in refusing to
allow the National Rifles Band TO play at
tho Nation Drill for less than Union rates,
brought on the climax. Mr.. Krause, the
leader Of the National Rifles Band, stated
in an interview, printed In THE CRITIC on
Wednesday, that 1t is simply an effort to
freeze them out, and he fails to see, he says,
why the Union should refuse to allow him
to play for sI.1s a day when the Baltimore
bands are allowed to come and play for 81.
On the other hand 1t is almost universally
claimed that Mr. Krause has not stated the
case fairly. Professor sousa, as being the
representative man among the musicians,
was sought and his opinion obtained. IIo
said: "1he Marine Band has been misrep-
resented. Individually and collectively
they welcome the advent OF a new band, nor
have they any wish to freeze out anyone.
On the contrary our arms arc open to well
come anyone who will join us In developing
the musical resources of the town. The
whole trouble has been caused by the Rifles
Band and not by the Musical Union. The
latter took the former into its fold and gave
1t all the advantages that accrued to the
Older members.
snow, as to the row being with the Gov
ernment bands. In the first place Secretary
De Leon did not even send us (the Marine
Band) an invitation to bid, knowing that
our figures would be too high, In fact, the
best bands In the country Cap
pas, the Americus and the Marine Band
have not been invited. Tue whole trouble
is, the Rifles Band Joined the union and
agreed to observe certain rules. Now 1t de-
sires to break those rules, and the union
says no. That's all there Is to it.n
Professor Pstorio who leads the orchestra
at Harris Bijou Theatre, was seen. His
opinion will be given the more credcnce by
reason Of his being conservative In every
thing except his ability, In which he is pro-
nounced. lie said: ait is great pity that
this trouble should have arisen, but
/ do not see but that the Rifles
Band has brought 1t on them
selves. They knew 1t would come
when they made the offer to play below
union rates, and they knew they were vio-
lating rule Of the union when they made
the offer. Now, Mr.. Krause says 1t is au
injustice to refuse to allow his band to play
for S4.7S day when the Baltimore bands
can come over here and play for 81. What
has the Washington union to do with that Z
Nothing. 1t is matter entirely In the
control Of the Baltimore union, with which
we have nothing to do"

BEECHER's FUNNY STORY.
The Drummer who Voted with the
Parson and Caused u litter.

anu OHuNtu u
Among the Rev. Henry Ward Beecher's
many accomplishments not the least is his
ability as a story-teler, says the Philadcl-
phla North american. To much-amused
listeners he recently told this one about a
New York drummer;
A typical "knlgbt of the grlpsack" was
detained in small town in Western New
York while ago where revival meeting
was In progress. lie had met a party Of
convivial friends during his stay there, and
had what Is popularly known as "a load
on.n Nevertheless, he drIfted into the re-
vival meeting and took seat well up In
'front.' II was rather close In the church
and the warm air was conducive to sleep.
The drummer yielded to the drowsy god,
and after nodding little sank into a pro.
found slumber, and slept through the miu-
ister's rather long and dry discourse. The
audience sung hymn and the drummer
slept on. Then the evangelist began his
address and wound up his fervid appeal
with this request:
"Will all ofyou who want to 90 to heaven
please rise.n
Every one in the church except the
sleepy drummer arose. When the evangel-
list asked them to be seated, one Of the
brothers In the same pew as the sleeping
drummer accidentally brushed against him
as he sat down. The drummer rubbed his
eyes, and, partially awake, heard the last
portion OF the evaDgellsts request, which
was:
"Now, want all Of you who want to go
to hell to stand up.n
The drummer struggled a little, leaned
forward unsteadily anu rose from his seat In
| a daztd sort of way. A sort Of suppressed
laugh he heard from some Of the younger
| people. and an expression OF horror he
noticed on the faces Of some OF the older
ones. steadying himself against the rail he
| looked at the evangelist au instant and then
| said:
"Well, parsop, | don't know Just exactly
| what we're voting on, but you and | seem u
be In hopeless minority"
